Global Social Change Research Project
WWW Virtual Library: Evaluation
Numerous project management sites can be found on the Web, most with some relevance to program management. In general these present a management methodology, such as the UK Government 'Office of Government Commerce' (OGC) PRINCE2. There is a clear benefit to a well-defined methodology applied across projects, but many will find this too formal.
There are fewer resources specifically for program management and these too tend to lead back to project management methodologies. The Programme Management Website has some links, some definitions and an archive of material.
